Thank you Megan.

Of course, Gaubster will immediately counter that "this is just one source"
and "give me some solid proof" and his/her other inane rebuttals.

See my previous post. I can't help you if you don't want to know the truth.
Try being analytical instead of emotional.

So a direct quote from someone from the FDA is simply wrong, too?
Regardless of your claim, using dogs and cats in pet food is not an
illegal act covered by federal law. If it is cite the statute.

Dogs and cats can be used in bone meal
for fertilizer.

And pet food, if a company so desires. There is no law against it.

"Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one
elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and
splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then
providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision,
raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and
material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his
way."

I could easily counter with the same.

I've provided sources so that you can look them up if so desired. If you have
sources that contradict me, then provide them.

I'm not at all backpedaling so please don't paint me as doing so. That's being
disingenuous on your part.

If the flagrant violation of law is so pervasive and widespread it won't be a
problem to show me where it is happening. You're totalling ignoring the FDA
study, btw.

Show me where the "truck on the way to the pet food company" had dead dogs and
cats in it. There still hasn't been anything shown to validate this urban
legend. The truck that was reported had cattle (beef) in it, not dogs and
cats.

FFS. The part she was clearly referring to from your own post was
this (in case you don't remember, your reply was that diseased parts
aren't used, not that the truck had dead dogs and cats on it):

copy and paste from Message-ID:


I am not an unreasonable person, but the concept of a diseased
animal,
a cow with mad cow disease, etc, being fed to my cat, does concern
me.

Diseased parts aren't used. That's just more spin that sells books
(and
whatever else). As for mad cow, that's being watched VERRRRY closely.
So, it
is being enforced.
